So, if you’re eating a little less in the summer months, there’s likely no cause for concern. It’s simply your body’s way of telling you what it needs.

Do yourself a favor and drink a lot of water to help your body stay hydrated, cool and healthy. When it comes to light and healthy summer foods, here are a few you should try:

Sprouts — Small but mighty, sprouts are packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and enzymes that help protect against free radical damage. They’re an inherently cooling food and are perfect for adding to salads, sandwiches and smoothies.

Watermelon — Watermelon is a staple summertime food for many, and rightly so! It’s more than 91% water, which means it offers a tasty way to help you stay hydrated in the hot temps.

Cucumbers — Cucumbers are made up of 95% water, so they’re also a healthy choice to keep you cool and hydrated. In addition to their water content, they’re packed with antioxidants that can help reduce anxiety and fight inflammation.

Citrus fruits — Oranges, grapefruits, lemons and limes all make great additions to your summer diet. The antioxidants they contain can help fight heart disease, cancer and other health conditions linked to inflammation. Eat them fresh or squeeze them into your water for a healthy flavor boost.

Watercress — Watercress is one of the most nutrient dense vegetables out there, and it’s perfect to help cool you down on a hot summer day. It can be eaten as a salad green, steamed as a vegetable, added to soups and sandwiches or sprouted.
